Kind To Myself
by Tenth Avenue North

Album: Kind To Myself - Single

Verse 1
I've tried to hate myself
Thinking that's how things will change
But it never helps
Piling up the blame
Fighting fire with fire
Hurt with more hurt
Breaking my own heart
Makes everything worse

Chorus
I gotta be kind, kind to myself
Cause I can't change, change any way else
If the kindness of my Savior
Is how He changes me
Then I can be kind, kind to myself

Verse 2
I know it sounds insane
But the old way wasn't working
I try to medicate
When the pain's under the surface
I've never healed by powering through
I had to learn how to see me
The way that You do

Chorus
I gotta be kind, kind to myself
Cause I can't change, change any way else
If the kindness of my Savior
Is how He changes me
Then I can be kind, kind to myself

Bridge
Yeah (Kind)
Don't misunderstand (Kind)
It's not permission (Kind)
It's conviction over condemnation (Kind)
Oh the curious love of God (Kind)
It's such a better and sweeter song (Kind)
Has a way of showing me
What's really going on, going on, yeah
What does the voice in your head sound like when you fail for the thousandth time?
Is it cruel or is it kind?

Chorus
Oh, I gotta be kind, kind to myself
Cause I can't change, change any way else
If the kindness of my Savior
Is how He changes me
I can be kind, kind to myself
I can be kind kind to myself
I can be kind, kind to myself
